What We Handle

Every detail. Nothing missed.

From day-to-day tenant requests to middle-of-the-night emergencies, we cover every aspect of managing your rental while you're away.

Rent Collection

We collect rent on your behalf and deposit it directly to your account every month — with a complete report waiting for you on your return.

Maintenance Coordination

With 7 years of hands-on trades experience, we assess repairs accurately, catch problems early, and coordinate trusted local contractors — so you're never overcharged or misled.

24/7 Emergency Response

Your tenant has a dedicated emergency line around the clock. Flooding, heat failure, break-ins — we respond fast so you don't have to interrupt your trip.

Tenant Communication

We serve as the professional, responsive point of contact for all tenant questions and concerns — your tenants are never left without an answer.

Property Inspections

Need eyes on your property? We offer on-demand inspection visits — documenting condition with photos and a written report. Charged at our standard site visit fee of $189.

Legal Compliance

We keep your rental compliant with BC landlord-tenant legislation — proper notices, lease obligations, and required disclosures — for the full duration of your engagement.

The Trades Advantage

Unlike most property caretakers, we bring 7 years of hands-on trades experience. We know what a job should cost, which contractors to trust, and how to spot a minor issue before it becomes a major expense — saving you money and protecting your investment.

Landlord Reviews

What our landlords say.

"
★★★★★

"We were nervous about our six-week trip to Portugal with our tenant still in the property. LandlordAway was the answer. They handled a plumbing issue we didn't even know about, and we never worried once."

"As a solo landlord I used to cancel trips or cut them short because of tenant calls. Since finding this service I've taken two full vacations — no calls, no stress. Completely changed my life."

Marcus T.
Marcus T. House Owner · Victoria
"
★★★★★

"What I love is that they actually understand repairs. When our furnace had an issue, they diagnosed it on the phone with the tenant and had the right tech booked within the hour. That trades background is real."

Common Questions

Frequently asked.

How long can you look after my property?
We offer temporary caretaking from as short as 1 week to as long as 12 months. Whether you're on a summer getaway or an extended sabbatical, we accommodate your timeline with no pressure to sign anything long-term.
What happens during a major emergency?
We have a 24/7 emergency line and relationships with licensed Victoria-area contractors. For spending above your pre-agreed limit, we contact you first. For true emergencies (flooding, fire, safety risk), we act immediately and notify you right away. Our trades background means we can often assess the situation accurately over the phone before dispatching anyone.
Do you need to meet my tenant beforehand?
Yes — ideally before you depart, we arrange a brief introduction (in person or by phone/video) so your tenant knows exactly who we are and how to reach us. We become their primary point of contact for the duration of your trip.
What does it cost?
Our caretaking fee is $99 per week, per property — flat rate, no percentage of rent, no hidden fees. Any in-person visit to your property (inspections, contractor supervision, emergency response) is billed at a $189 site visit fee. See our full pricing for details.
Does my tenant need to consent?
As the landlord, you have the right to appoint a local caretaking contact under BC law. We recommend notifying your tenant in advance — which we help facilitate. Most tenants appreciate having a responsive, local person to reach out to while their landlord is travelling.
Where do you operate?
We serve the Greater Victoria area, including Victoria, Esquimalt, Saanich, Oak Bay, View Royal, Colwood, and Langford. If your property is nearby and not on this list, get in touch — we'll let you know if we can accommodate you.
